Since he was young, Brett Atkin has always loved building things. He said if the PGA Tour wasn’t his dream, he would have been an architect.

After his four years at Butler University playing varsity golf and many more in Florida eyeing a tour card, Atkin started working on websites and hasn’t looked back.

“I like building things and I like seeing things from start to finish,” Atkin said.

He got his start from a random encounter in 1997 with a home improvement business consultant and he hasn’t looked back. He started Brett Atkin Design 17 years ago and recently rebranded to Pixel Jocks.

A zWORKS co-founder is living out the zWORKS mission: to be an economic development catalyst.

February’s Member of the Month is Dan Moyers who recently joined one of zWORKS’ own – 120WaterAudit – as the VP of Products and Solutions.

After six years with a consulting firm, Moyers made the move to an early-stage product company. 120WaterAudit is a water-sampling company that sells water-testing kits to ensure quality throughout the year. They joined with zWORKS a year ago and graduated to 10 ½ S. Main St. this past winter.
